My favorite part of the tour was the guide. They really get into character. In fact, our tour guide told us he is not allowed to wear sunglasses or carry a water bottle because Bostonians didn't have those luxuries in the 18th century. He did have a nifty little canteen to quench his thirst, however. And, of course, he was very knowledgeable about all things Boston and the American Revolution in general.

Have you ever been to Boston? I would love to return some day! This trip was mostly filled with work, but I'm so glad I took an afternoon to walk The Freedom Trail. What other fun and/or historical attractions should I add to my list for my next visit?
